We could spread Grey’s ice-cream explanation around the internet – it could become part of baseball’s mythological arcana. Howard ate two gallons of ice cream, became sick with a 104 degree fever, was hospitalized overnight, released in time to pinch hit a 3 run moonshot,(which would have been even more dramatic if Madson didn’t blow the save.), ate another gallon of ice cream, and wound up back in the hospital. Kinda like the Babe’s 18 hot dog bellyache saga.

They have nearly identical stats, and Overbay doesn’t have Cantu’s nagging eye crap/dizziness going on.

@Mr. Rickey: Alexei

@Sam: I’d sit Smoltz, but there’s some real marginal starts there. I almost said to sit Pettitte, but the Braves are lefty heavy. Same with RJ.

Wandy vs. DET
Pettitte @ ATL
Jair vs. BOS
R. Johnson @ OAK?

I’d hate to cut ties with Liriano, but if he doesn’t continue to show improvement this week with his two starts, I’m afraid of what I might have to do… why can’t he just kick ass again???

J Vazquez
F Liriano
T Hanson
W Rodriguez
S Baker
J Danks
C Kershaw

I posted and accidentally shut off comments when I went to sleep. I don’t know if the Secret Stash is right, but it could be. Seemed like a well-thought out explanation.

@EricB: Sit Hanson, Zimmermann and Harden.

Billingsley at CHW (Richard)
Hanson (2 starts) vs NYY (Wang) and vs BOS (Penny)
Harden at DET (Porcello)
Kershaw vs SEA (Hernandez)
Kuroda (2 starts) at CHW (Danks) and vs SEA (Olson)
Scherzer (2 starts) vs TEX (Harrison) and vs ANA (Palmer)
Shields vs FLA (Johnson)
Slowey at STL (Wellemeyer)
Smoltz at WAS (Zimmermann)
Zimmerman vs BOS (Smoltz)

Any advice?

Thought for a sec that i had to buy another daquiri before i could read your daily run-down. Or that the Feds had closed down shop alleged involvement with the SDS years ago. Or that you sold out to go to ESPN, and was going to perform marriages and throw out the first pitch in MLB, a la Berry.

I have a feeling that the Mets may do with Beltran as they did with Reyes – keep playing him until his injury exacerbates to the point that he will be AWOL for a month or more. And yeah, the same thought regarding CC – if you are taken out in the 1st inning, there is usually something wrong. La de da, La de da. All I can think of is that the Yankee organization is fractured, and I’m not sure who actually is making decisions these days.

Do you trust the wisdom of Secret Stash concerning Big Floppy?

Thanks, again, but don’t confuse me any more! (appropriate emoticom.)

@ABell: Cost me a point for ERA as well. Kemp probably should have caught it, but I can see how they would call it a double. Broxton just wasn’t very sharp last night.

I’m debating activating him in place of Slowey, who scares me a bit with his “sore side”… sounds like an oblique, no? Plus, Slowey’s at STL, a pretty good offense.

Or I could start both Soria and Howell…

Problem is, can’t get fair value for either right now. A team punting saves has Mo on the block and everyone’s chasing him.

You should be trading one. But you can start Howell if you like, there’s no guarantee that Soria won’t get more saves this week though.

So, as a follow-up – With glaring evidence of KC’s general ineptitude and Howell’s recent use by Maddon, is it Howell over Soria this week? Thanks…
